- took profits on IFLY... after holding for almost 10 1/2 months.

- There's another internet company I'm in to, like IFLY... earnings for 6 straight years... all sorts of phone products including "least call routing over the internet"... contracts with Ericsson/Italian Telephone/Tadiran/Phillips/Panasonic & several other big players.

- The name is Mer Telemanagement Systems (MTSLF) & the stock is under $2; was over $9 a year 1/2 ago until Hampshire Securities went bust. No warrants on this one. Small float though.

- Anyway... check it out. would be interested in anyone's thoughts.

From Yahoo:

To see how IFLY's IRIS works:

1) Go to eshare.com

2) On main page, select "Main Demo" from See it in Action box on right side of web page.

3) Go through 10 slides showing how IRIS works!!!

I would guess that once people realize how IRIS works, people will become more and more comfortable with E-commerce and making purchases over the internet. The reason for the added degree of comfort is that IRIS allows a consumer to communicate directly with a service representative in a "Chat-like" format. Ultimately, the peace of mind associated with personal communication will increase the popularity of internet sites like those developed for IFLY and 800Flowers, and I wouldn't be surprised if other internet companies follow this model as well.

Oh, and I almost forgot... this system allows service representatives to quote lower airfare prices than comparable internet teavel agencies. This, combined with the strong management experience in the travel field, should lead to prosperity for an internet company that is already profitable!!!

I bought because the stock rose 33% on three times normal volume last week. That criteria has worked amazingly well in the past month, pointing me toward NSOL, INOC and SKYM. I just jump on what's hot. Face it, in this market fundamentals don't matter. For example, I seriously doubt anything has happened to IFLY to make the company worth 79% more than it was worth yesterday. I just run with the lemmings and don't ask questions.
